Rainbow Cereal Bars {3 Ingredients}
Quick and easy cereal bars recipe, homemade with 3 simple ingredients. These no bake rainbow bars are full of Froot Loops and marshmallows. Perfect for rainbow parties or St.Patrick’s Day!
Before I get attacked for calling these rainbow fruit loops marshmallow bars as “bars,” let me just say it sounded way better than calling them “shards” …LOL!
You can easily cut them into bars, if you like.
But I wanted to cut them randomly and make them look more abstract and ARTISTIC.
Yes! I am WEIRD like that….lol.
These rainbow fruit loops marshmallow bars are actually a SPIN on the classic rice krispie treats.
Truth be told, I am NOT too crazy about rice krispie treats coz their texture is really weird but these treats have a totally different texture.
They are CRISPY and CRUNCHY unlike the classic, which are soft and chewy.
Be prepare to land in a sugar coma after having a few nibbles coz these cuties are SWEEEEEET!
I actually served these at my son’s colorful shapes birthday party and the kids loved them!
These would also be great for serving at rainbow themed birthday parties or even St.Patrick’s Day.
Well, that’s all for today.

Do these treats need to be refrigerated?
You can refrigerate them if you like but it’s really not necessary. Put them in a container or Ziploc bag at room temperature and your should be fine.
